Studies immediately after World War H revealed significant differences between the academic performances of married and single college students which more recent studies have consistently failed to find. This discrepancy suggests the hypothesis that the roles of student and husband are more integrated in the case of the older student who has returned to school than in the case of the younger student who has married while in school. While older married students do have more integrated roles and perform somewhat better, closer examination of the data shows that role integration and academic performance are negatively related. Apparently the economy of sanctions resulting from role integration leads to a selection process slightly adverse from the standpoint of academic ability
